DARG is a pro-life, non-profit organisation that rescues, cares for and rehomes abused, neglected and abandoned cats and dogs. It is our vision to be a leading example of animal sheltering in South Africa.
The DARG centre provides shelter, food and medication, on any given day, to an average of 60 dogs (puppies not included) and 150 cats (kittens not included). The work of DARG is supported entirely through donations by the public and our kind supporters. Thanks to you, DARG has sheltered, fed, sterilised and rehomed over 10 000 animals.
Adoption Policy/Cost: Potential parents are casually "interviewed" and asked to fill out a form. A homecheck then follows. Only once both home and parents are approved can the pet finally leave the sanctuary. There's a fixed Adoption Fee of R350.00 for dogs/puppies and R250.00 for cats/kittens which includes: vaccinations up to date, deworming, Frontline and the sterilisation when the pet is 6 months old. Sterilisation is compulsory and no DARG animals should be used for breeding. Pets older than 6 months will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption.

I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter; the cast-offs of human society.
I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness, and betrayal.
And I was angry."God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"
God was silent for a moment, and then spoke softly,
"I have done something," was the reply. "I created you."
